Pretty and Challenging

Pretty course winds through resort. Front nine is grass, back nine is more desert with waste areas, like playing 2 courses. Many blind shots, hilly.

Very Impressed

I didn't know what to expect when I got there, but from the 1st tee box, I could see that this was gonna be a fun day!! The course layout was amazing! Every hole was unique. #2 was under repair, and you can't see it from the tee box, but otherwise, in great shape. Luckily I played with a local to get some shot advice from. Highly recommend this course!!

Really enjoy the course

Beverages are very expensive. Staff was friendly and course layout was good. Liked the views from the course. Course needs a better driving range. We enjoyed our round.

Nice Course

We were delayed for an hour because of frost, not a big deal but then the staff came around twice telling us we need to speed up because they were really backed up from the frost delay. Sorry but that is not my problem. We were not holding anyone up and keeping a good pace of play. Some of the greens were a bit rough, the fairways were in great shape though. If you decide to eat there be ready for the sticker shock a hamburger will cost you $23.00. The staff in the bar is useless, if you want service don't sit at a table they just ignore you. You have to either sit at the bar or you have to go to the bar to get your drinks and ask for a menu. This was not the kind of service I would have expected from Arizona Grand.

Frostdelay and pace of play

We are visitors from switzerland, choose a teetime to escape the twilight times and to be sure finishing the course before it gets dark.

So first of all is the bag drop closed.- Carrying the bags to the carts.

In the pro Shop we paid the fees and it was charged as we booked it. Starttime arround 01.00 pm

driving range….. hard to find and its only a warm up net installed for 3 people.

putting green…. Small and with 3 holes. On the way we passed the starter and now we got informed, that there is a delay of 1/2 hour cause of frost in the morning.

So we passed our time to finally start at 01.50 pm and it was like hitting one stroke and each following shot we had to wait.

Pace of play was slow and i guess the ranger we saw did not motivate the Golfers two move on quicker.

So we played our last hole 13 😆

The screen informed us with the message to hand in the carts in at 5.35 pm…..

Greens already full of tracks and not in track.

Hole 2 had a building works on the left in the lay up zone- no sign or information.

Not a nice experience and no way to play once more or suggest it to friends

Long Day

The course is short. We played from blue tees at 5800 yards. There were blind shots on numerous holes. Greens were slow. It was a long day (5 hrs 15 min) due to the group in front of us. We waited on every hole. The Marshall told us on 10 that he spoke to them about picking up pace due to the fact that there were two completely open holes in front of them. Never saw the Marshall again. Instead of speeding up, they played slower. By the time we got to 14, there was no one in front of them on the course. Also, they do not indicate no driving range on website and charge $21.00 for sleeve of balls.

It’s a yes

I would play this course again. The course was in very good condition from tee to green. For the price it was well worth the experience and pace of play was good too, I’d say a little over 4 hrs. for the round. Also a plus was the course lay out and views of the desert and the finishing hole for sure. 18 is par 3 to a lowered green. Bring your camera to the tee box. Beautiful view.

Under $100 great course

I actually really enjoyed this course. The average golfer can have a good day here if you have your stuff going. Going to be a little challenging for new comers to the game. Unfortunately we got paired up with a couple duffers. One busted out a window in a house off the tee box. The round ended up being 5hrs 15min. The greens rolled great, the fairways were in good shape, and there was plenty of elevation changes that made the scenery nice and kept the course interesting. I also enjoyed being able to get a good hot Mocha from the pro shop. I’ve played a lot of course in AZ since moving here 3 years ago and I will make this one a regular as long as they keep it up.

SO SLOW

left the course while waiting on deck on the 14th tee as the 5th group pulled up behind us. This was also well into the 4th hour of the round....Marshall passed us twice and just shrugged as he drove by.
